Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band recently released a new version of the Bob Dylan classic, "The Times They Are A-Changin." The group's version, which features vocal and musical appearances by Jason Isbell, Rosanne Cash, The War And Treaty and Steve Earle, is available for “name your price” purchase on the band’s Bandcamp page, with all proceeds going to the nonprofit Feeding America. Additionally, the song has been made available via digital service providers, with those proceeds also going towards Feeding America’s cause.

“I’ve been a fan of Bob Dylan’s since I was a teenager, living in California,” says Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's founding member and lead singer Jeff Hanna. “I was fortunate enough to see him sing 'The Times They Are A-Changing' in concert the year the song was released: 1964 ... It moved me deeply then and that hasn’t changed. The lyrics are as relevant today as they were when Dylan wrote it. Maybe even more so.”
